Trinidad towards its liorary and publications

might be used.

Dr. Herklots is undouutedly an aule

and keen viologist, and i think he should be

encouraged as far as possiule. China is

yet an unexplored ield and much oi the work

done by the Americans has been of very second-

rate quality. The Americans are, I

understand, becoming increasingly unpopular

in China and work of the character being

undertaken by Dr. Herklots may, in the long

run, be of greater and wider value to une

Empire than its purely scientific value.

I leave it to you to suggest what

should be done, wüt it might be considered

whether you should tell Dr. Herklots that

you have had my note on the interview, th9 t

his work has your sympathy, and ? that he

might consider asking the University Butnorities

whether they would be prepared to approach

the Carnegie Trustees for an endowment grant

some what on the lines of the grant given to

the imperial College of Tropical Agriculture in

Trinidad. I know nothing OI the boxer

Indemnity money and whether there is any

chance of touching those monies not referred to

in Treaties. i do know that several people

have their eyes on some money supposed to be

availaule from the Boxer Indemnity.
